“Dancing with… a skeleton called Eli”

This blog is about pasta. It’s about Italian food, health and nutrition. So tonight I really feel the need of talking about Elisabetta Canalis, the Italian ex girlfriend of George Clooney who is in the cast of Dancing with the Stars. To tell you the truth I’ve been waiting for this post for at least one month!! I couldn’t wait…!!!

Let’s talk about her miserable performance for a moment. It’s Tuesday, 9.30 pm and voters just saved her along with her dance partner Valentin Chmerk..ov..skiy… oh… whatever! It really was a BIG surprise. For her, of course, for me and for everyone who watched her dancing last night.

In the première of the season, the couple only achieved a score of 15 out of 30 from the judges. Now voters have decided that they’ll come back next week. Jeeez…. My Canadian and American friends, I have to tell you the truth. Italians do hate her. Ok, maybe not everyone, but the most part of them. Why? I can’t understand why… she’s such a charming and nice person… – I’m ironic, obviously. Plus, everyone thinks and knows that her “love story” with George Clooney was absolutely a fake.

Last night, Elisabetta’s routine, which began with her in bed with her dance partner, failed to impress the judges. She made a mistake even before she started her supposed to be sexy performance, when she was still rolled up like a Mexican wrap in those red bed sheets. At the end, one of the judges, the Italian choreographer Bruno Tonioli, told her: “I liked the bed, you were very good in bed Elisabetta”… What did he mean by that????

She always nodded when judges were talking with her about the performance but not sure of what she really understood of what they were saying… Actually, tonight she didn’t even understand that she had been saved… After the vote, she said: “I want to thank everybody… Thank you, thank you, thank you“. What else she could say? NOTHING!! She only knows those words… I’m wondering how she communicated with George… … Just sayin’….

Speaking of which, maybe you know her only because she is Clooney’s ex girlfriend. What you don’t know is that earlier this year, Italian creepy Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi asked that Elisabetta and George go to Italy in order to testify in his defense against allegations that he paid an underage girl to have sex with him. Please, don’t make me say anything about this. If you want to know more just read the latest news here. Plus, a French model-turned-prostitute told the police that she snorted cocaine with “Eli”, like everyone calls her, at Milan hot spot, The Club, on two separate occasions in 2007. At that time, Eli said “no comment”.

But there is another thing that I’ve noticed. Did you see how skinny she is? You can find two pictures of her in this post. Moreover, she danced like a piece of wood. I’m not a dancer but I think I have charisma and I’m very self-confident even when I work out. Actually, my fave workout dvd is more about dancing and having fun rather than being a boring workout. When she did not, she posed too much. In other words, she really sucked!
